    Teaching Young Ones About God and Christ

    You might try different things and see what works for your family. With my kids (ages 9 and 3) I pray with them at meal times, before we start our day, and before we go to bed. They actually argue over who gets to say the prayer! We have a couple of children's Bible books (they really like...

    Harlem Shake... give us your opinions here

    I've heard of it but I've never understood the appeal of these kinds of things. Of course, that's coming from an old fart.

    If you could have a ministry...

    Here's my 2 cents: I am a single mom who depends on some of the programs that were mentioned. I haven't been able to find work, but I am in the process of finishing my BA and then my Masters. My goal? Social work to help families who are in the situation I am in now. My life is my...

    Children

    Older women do pose a greater risk for having a child with a disability. That doesn't mean younger women can't also have a special needs child. I had my son at 24 and he was diagnosed with autism before he was three. I had my daughter almost 6 years later and she's fine. And I'm done having...

    Everything in moderation. Like the others said, I believe it's better to eat real whole foods rather than the science factory things they come out with that are supposed to be uber healthy. But I must admit this last week I was scanning the salad dressing aisle for some of that zero calorie...

    what am i doing?

    With such limited information, I'm guessing there are other things going on in your life and maybe talking to a trusted friend or a counselor about them could help. Sometimes just talking out loud can give you that ah-ha moment you need.

    what to say in messages in dating sites?

    :ahah: You guys are either going to ruin his chances with all women or... Actually, that's about it. I agree with reading through the girl's profile and then commenting on something you find interesting about it or something you have in common. :thumbsup:

    Growing up in Church

    I think I can relate. Although my denomination is different now than it was, I've always believed there was a God and I was His child. Not everyone has a jolting born-again story. I think many (most?) Christians have a more subtle shift in the way we think and how we lead our lives.

    Life Button

    There are so many things I would do differently! For starters, like some others said, my focus on education would be completely different.

    Has being a Christian made you boring?

    I haven't become more boring. In fact, since becoming a Christian I feel more free to love completely and enjoy the life God has given me.

    Smelly kitchen

    If they're farm fresh eggs, they don't need to be in the fridge. My guess is the Indian food went bad?
